Chapter 252: A Woman Transforms into a Man: Engaging in Science and Technology in the 1970s and 1980s 06
Provincial No. 1! He really is the provincial No. 1!
The college entrance examination results have not been fully announced yet, but the news that Jiang Lan has become the provincial No. 1 has already spread to the school.
The head teacher and the grade leader who received the good news were about to rush to the Jiang family to report the good news, when they saw the principal waiting at the school gate.
The principal got a tractor from somewhere, and hung a big red banner on the front of the car that read "Congratulations to Jiang Lan for winning the first place in the province."
What's even more exaggerated is that he also moved the gongs and drums that had been in the school equipment room for a long time, obviously intending to liven up the atmosphere.
"Hurry up, hurry up, go to the street and buy a big red flower first, and then we'll go to the village."
The tractor swung around for a long time and then started to drive towards the Jiang family.
When entering the village, the school leaders beat gongs and drums, making a great noise, attracting many villagers to watch.
"What's the good news?"
"Didn't you see it hanging on the front of the car? The child of the Jiang family has passed the imperial examination."
"This is incredible, the Jiang family is going to produce a great man."
"Jiang Dashan's ancestors are very happy, and a promising child has been born."
Jiang Dashan, who got the news, ran out of the factory quickly.
Even Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang from the same village, as well as Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang, all rushed over.
This is a big event for the old Jiang family, and everyone is happy.
Jiang Lan welcomed the school leaders in and brewed some local tea for them.
As for the other villagers, there were too many people, and he really couldn't greet them all.
"Jiang Lan, you applied to Tsinghua University before, right?"
"Yes, that's the one I applied for."
The principal was very happy. This is a good aspiration. This is a good aspiration.
The high school in this community has a student from Tsinghua University. It will be the most resounding sign for next year's enrollment.
"Dashan is back..."
Jiang's father walked in. The villagers gathered at the door made way for him. He immediately felt flattered.
The school leader stood up and shook hands with Jiang's father.
"Comrade Jiang, you gave birth to a good son. He has brought honor to our community, our county, and our city."
Jiang's father smiled innocently, "Thank you, thank you."
The villagers around him all laughed kindly, "Dashan is so happy."
Isn't he so happy?
If this kind of good thing happened to my family, I would be so happy.
"Leader, is it expensive to go to college?"
"Is it more expensive the better the school?"
The principal straightened his face, "Nonsense, do you think you are buying something? The better the thing, the more expensive it is."
The villagers smiled bitterly. There has never been a college student in this community, so it is normal for them to think so.
The senior patiently explained: "This is all a misunderstanding. The tuition fees of good schools are really not high. Jiang Lan's grades are so good, and the community, county, city and even the province will give him bonuses. This money is more than enough for studying, and I estimate there will be more."
The principal nodded and continued the topic.
"Jiang Lan can get a scholarship if he performs well in school. He will be assigned a job after graduation, so he doesn't have to worry about it."
The villagers were envious. It was the first time for them to know that studying not only doesn't cost money, but they can also make money.
After graduating from university, they will be assigned a job and can live in a big city.
Everyone used to think that studying was useless. If you can't study, you can't study. What diploma is needed for farming? It's good enough to get a high school degree and work in a factory.
Now they don't think so. If someone's family can produce a seedling who can study, it's amazing.
Not only does he not have to support his family to study, but he can also help his family make money.
If I can stay in the city, I won't have to worry about anything in the future.
"The school has also prepared a little gift for Jiang Lan." The principal took out a big red envelope and put it in Jiang Lan's hand.
"Jiang Lan, when you go out in the future, don't forget your hometown."
"Thank you, principal, this is my root, I won't forget it."
The things that should be done have been done.
The school leaders didn't stay any longer and drove the tractor back.
The people in the village congratulated for a while, and Jiang's father and mother's faces were almost frozen with laughter, but they were also very happy in their hearts.
The family was happy, but Jiang Tian locked herself in the room, covering her ears and not wanting to listen to the noise outside.
Soon, except for Grandpa Jiang, Grandma Jiang, Uncle Jiang, and Uncle Jiang, all the villagers who were so excited went home, and the Jiang family finally calmed down.
"Jiang Lan, how much money is in the big red envelope that the principal gave you?"
Mother Jiang looked at the red envelope in Jiang Lan's hand, and her greedy look was particularly obvious.
"What's going on? This is given to Jiang Lan by the school. You are such a shameless mother."
Grandma Jiang looked at Jiang's mother and sneered, "This money is for Jiang Lan to go to college. None of you can touch it." Grandpa
Jiang also stood up and said, "Jiang Lan is the first college student in our Jiang family. We can't treat him unfairly no matter what." Uncle
Jiang and Uncle Jiang also stuffed the red envelopes into Jiang Lan's hands, "This is a little token of my appreciation. You must study hard outside."
Jiang's mother was unhappy. She coveted the red envelopes, but she didn't dare to take them in front of so many relatives.
Grandpa Jiang walked to the main seat and sat down, and asked casually: "Jiang Lan did so well in the exam? How did Jiang Tian do? They are from the same mother, so it can't be too bad."
This was like stirring up a hornet's nest, and Jiang Tian was a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong? Why don't you talk? How many points did you get in the exam?"
"I don't know."
Jiang Tian's voice was as soft as a mosquito, almost inaudible.
"Speak louder, didn't you eat enough?"
"I said I don't know, you are satisfied, right?" Jiang Tian turned around and went back to her room angrily.
"What's going on? How come Jiang Tian doesn't know how many points she got?"
Jiang Lan explained, "Grandpa, the college entrance examination results have not been fully announced yet. We have to wait for the school's notification. When the time comes, Jiang Tian will probably have to go to the test site to get the score slip to know how many points she got."
"So that's how it is. You are really promising. The teacher has come to our house to notify us."
Jiang Lan smiled and didn't continue talking.
After the relatives and friends of the Jiang family left, Jiang's mother quietly went to Jiang Tian's room and asked about her test results.
She never worried about her son, but she was worried about her daughter.
"Tian, how did you do in the exam?"
"Mom, don't ask me. I can't score higher than my brother no matter how hard I try. What does it matter what I score?"
Jiang Tian said with her back to her mother. "My brother is your treasure anyway. You can just throw away my useless daughter."
"That's impossible. Don't you love me the most?"
"Mom, why is my brother so much smarter than me? Did you give all the good things to my brother when you gave birth to me?"
Jiang's mother didn't know how to answer her and could only comfort her.
"Okay, don't think about it. Go to the school tomorrow to ask. If the results are out, go to the test site to get the score slip." Jiang Tian
nodded, thinking that she has always been lucky. What
if a blind cat meets a dead mouse and she really gets admitted to university?
